Chapter 337 The roof is overturned - The sickly young lady eats melons in the courtyard

Aunt Li is still Aunt Li, and her actions are still as quick as ever.

She went straight to Mr. Li who was fishing, "Old lady, how come you are here?"

"Why am I here? Can't I come?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Master Li quickly agreed. He didn't know who had pulled the tiger's whiskers again today, and why was he so angry?

"Why am I so angry? It's all because of those brats of yours!"

Mr. Li touched his nose innocently. Why did he say what was in his heart just now?

Mr. Li smiled flatteringly, "Tell me how those boys at home annoyed you again? I'll go back and teach them a lesson later!"

"How else did they annoy me? I'm getting annoyed by their quarrels every day!"

"Ah~" Master Li sighed helplessly. That's right. He also avoided home because there were frequent quarrels at home.

Father Lin sat nearby, motionless to reduce his presence, with his ears perked up to listen, glancing at the lake from time to time.

"This is not a solution!"

"Then what can you do?" Aunt Li asked unhappily.

"I don't know whether it is a good thing to let the third brother come back?" At the beginning, it was Master Li who made the final decision!

Aunt Li didn't say anything, nor did she stop this matter. She just thought about the eldest and second sons who got married, had children and had happy families. She couldn't help but think about the third son in the countryside. He was also old enough, so wasn't it time for him to get married?

She felt a little bit reluctant when she thought of this. Coincidentally, the third child wrote back to complain at that time, so she did not object to her husband's decision.

Who knew things would end up like this?

The third brother did not come back alone, he brought a daughter-in-law with him.

I heard from the third brother that his daughter-in-law was the daughter of the captain of the brigade where he worked in the countryside. He had promised to bring this daughter-in-law back to the city, and only then did the captain give him a letter of introduction and some certificates for returning to the city. Otherwise, even if there was a job waiting for him in the city, he would not be able to come back.

After learning about it, Mr. and Mrs. Li felt a little angry and a little sad. They had already brought the child back, so what else could they do? They could only accept it.

As for the other two sons and daughters-in-law in these families, they have strong opinions in their hearts.

As I said before, they feel they are being taken advantage of, so of course they are unwilling to do so!

"My dear, what do you say about us dividing the family home?" Lin's mother blurted out.

"What? You want to split up the family? Are you willing?" Mr. Li was not very happy.

As long as the parents are still alive, the family will not be divided. If they are divided, wouldn’t it be telling everyone clearly that there is discord in the Li family?

"Okay, stop thinking about that. How can I not know what you are thinking about?

Even if they don’t say it, others know that there is discord in our family.”

Do some things just have to be said?

"..." Master Li looked at Madam Li with some resentment. Couldn't she give him some face?

Master Li glanced at Father Lin from the corner of his eye, wondering if the old man had heard what had just been said.

When Father Lin saw the look in Master Li's eyes, he immediately withdrew his thoughts and pretended to be concentrating on fishing and not hearing anything.

“…”Haha! As long as I pretend well, you won’t be able to catch me.

"Let me think about it again!" Master Li really didn't want to divide the family.

"What's there to think about? Even if we split up, they are still our sons! If they don't listen, just report them to the factory!" Aunt Li said nonchalantly.

Mr. Li glared at her. Who would really report their son to the factory?

However, what the old woman said makes sense. If these sons are disobedient and unfilial, and they report it to the factory directly, the factory will also take care of it. In serious cases, the job may be lost.

"What about our daughter? She is the only unmarried girl in the family. She is still studying and not old enough!"

"What's the big deal? Don't we still have us? Besides, even if the family splits up, the eldest brothers are no longer the younger sister's brothers, right?" Aunt Li felt that what Mother Lin said was quite right.

“……”That makes sense.

Mr. Li was silent for a while, "Okay, I'll think about it!"

"You're still thinking about a hammer! Think quickly. If you keep thinking, the roof of this house will be blown off."

"Okay, okay, let's split up the family!" Master Li compromised.

"So let's go back tonight and divide the house among them?"

"Isn't it too hasty?" Mr. Li said hesitantly.

"Okay, you old man, you're not trying to delay time, are you?" Aunt Li directly twisted Grandpa Li's arm.

"Oh! No, no, how dare I? I've already said it, how could I delay?"

Tsk, why is my spouse still as fierce as ever?

"Okay, keep your word. Don't go back without saying anything."

"I know, I know. You go back first, I'll be back later!" Master Li hasn't caught all the fish yet!

"Okay, then I'll go first. I'll go find the director of the street office first." For things like dividing up a household, you still have to find someone to witness it.

The director of the street office is considered a leader in their street, big or small, so it would be great to ask him to testify.

"OK!"

After Aunt Li left, Uncle Li suddenly let out a breath, "Huh~~"

Father Lin was trying not to laugh. This old Li is quite funny! I didn't expect that he would listen to the female comrades at home and have no status at all.

"What are you laughing at? Aren't we the same?" Master Li turned his head and saw the man trying hard to hold back his laughter. Is it that funny?

Besides, you are not any better than me. Don't think I don't know that you are the same at home!

"What's the difference? My wife is so gentle to me." Father Lin boasted.

"Eh~~" Even though Mr. Li was so old, he got goosebumps on his arms.

The two stayed here for a long time before getting up and leaving.

"Today's harvest is still acceptable!"

"It's still manageable!" Father Lin couldn't help but curl his lips as he looked at the few fish in the bucket.

The fish pond on the mountain was almost getting used to him. He actually rejected these fish during such a year of scarcity. If other people knew about it, they would tear him to pieces, wouldn't they?

Master Li looked at him with envy and disdain, "If you don't want it, you can give it to me."

"No, how can this be? I want to take this back to make fish soup for my daughter to nourish her body." Father Lin always used his daughter as an excuse for everything.

Mr. Li felt a little regretful and looked away from Lin's father's bucket with reluctance.
